Allen County Jail
The Old Allen County Jail is a former jail in Iola, Kansas, United States. Built in the late 1860s, it operated as a detention facility for nearly a century before a replacement opened; today, it is a local history museum, and it has been designated a historic site.
==Structure==
The jail is a stone rubble masonry structure, two stories tall and constructed of large blocks of limestone. Its walls are approximately thick. As originally designed, the jail contained living space for the jailer on the second story and prison space on the first story; the cells were built of steel bars and placed on the solid stone floor. The facade includes two second-story windows and a central door on the first story.〔Pankratz, Richard D. ''National Register of Historic Places Inventory/Nomination: Allen County Jail''. National Park Service, 1974-09-04.〕 Although it was called the finest jail in southeastern Kansas at the time of its completion, it was never secure; over the course of its history, many prisoners escaped by removing bars from windows or cutting holes in the roof.〔
